WEST COAST youngster Chris Masten has been rewarded for his impressive performance against Port Adelaide with the round 16 NAB Rising Star nomination.
Masten collected a career-high 38 possessions and booted one goal in the Eagles' 36-point loss to the Power at AAMI Stadium on Sunday.
The former East Fremantle product made his AFL debut in round two last year and played nine matches before succumbing to osteitis pubis.
The 20-year-old has been a shining light for West Coast this season, playing 15 matches and averaging just over 20 disposals per game.
Masten, who was taken with pick three in the 2007 national draft, captained Western Australia to the 2007 AFL Under-18 Championships title and earned All-Australian honours for his performances.
